I bought a "Greenhills version" of NWN before. At first, it was a bit confusing to play. After an hour or so, I got the hang of it. That night (and three consecutive nights after) I lost tons of sleep. :) It is quite addicting and the story prods to you to play on.
Once I found out that a Linux version was coming out, I saved my money and bought a retail version from Data Blitz. Now, like you, I too am drooling over the screenshots. I can't wait for the Linux client to come out! :) According to the list on Tuxgames.com, the Linux client is slated to come out on Nov. 16. Once you get the retail version and the Linux client comes out, perhaps we could play a multiplayer game. :) hehehehe Linux gaming lives! :) I do hope that the trend where games originally only for Windows are now being ported to Linux continues. NeverWinter Nights coupled with Blackbox would be nice. Not much in the memory for the GUI so there's lots of space for the game. :) - Andoy On Sunday 13 October 2002 1:50 am, eric pareja wrote: > Okay... it's been a while since I visited Bioware's NWN website[1] and am > pleased to report that they have a page specifically for updates on > the Linux client.
